What She Don't Know Won't Hurt Her

My woman thinks I wouldn't cheat

On her when we're apart

But there's a secret hidden

In the shadows of my heart

The truth is catching up with me

And it's hard to hide my shame

What she don't know won't hurt her

But it's drivin' me insane

My mind can't take my body

Runnin' 'round anymore

That guilty feelin's waitin' for me

Right outside my door

So let's just call it off tonight

And let my conscience be

What she don't know won't hurt her

But it's destroyin' me

It bothers me every time

I hear the doorbell ring

That someone might be droppin' by

To tell her everything

I stay upset 'cause I don't know

If anybody sees

What she don't know won't hurt her

But it's destroyin' me

My mind can't take my body

Runnin' 'round anymore

That guilty feelin's waitin' for me

Right outside my door

So let's just call it off tonight

And let my conscience be

What she don't know won't hurt her

But it's destroyin' me

What she don't know won't hurt her

But, Lord, it's killin' me
